“We will therefore continue ensuring that Kuria residents do not lack the essential services that will lift their lives,” Uhuru said.

He said it is for this purpose that his Government has created two more Sub-Counties of Mabera and Ntimaru whose administrators will be posted by next week.

President Kenyatta also announced that the Government will post Deputy County Commissioners Patrick Mumali to Mabera and Anthony Munari to Ntimaru next week in its efforts to take services closer to the people.

Uhuru, who was accompanied by Deputy President William Ruto, said the new administrative units will ensure Kuria residents are able to get better services from the national Government.
